This website is dedicated to stories about the old West. Much of it relates to the Sherwin and Huntington families who were early pioneers in the Bighorn Basin and Cody, Wyoming areas from the late 1800s on.

I am the son of Wylie Grant Sherwin whose complete journal you will find here and from which several of the stories are taken.
